Paganoonoo = upcycle sewing made simple. We design upcycled fashions that are classic/arty, flattering, with plenty of hip and belly room and sell instructions so you can duplicate our designs. Upcycle sewing is easy on the budget, good for the planet and all the tough bits are already complete, like buttonholes, collars, plackets, etc! Our commitment is that you have access to successfully transforming existing clothing into new creations.

Mock of of Paganoonoo Booth for Puyallup Sewing Expo, Feb 25-28

I'm doing mock-ups of the Paganoonoo booth for the Puyallup Sewing Expo. It's less than three weeks away, starting on February 25 and runs through the 29th.

Building this feels a bit like replicating one of California's missions for a fourth grade project, but without parental help and more fun.

The decks of cards represent garment racks, the foil represents a mirror.

The salt and pepper shakers are dressforms, the upside down custard cups the sales table, and the butter dish cover is the display table.

The banners are miniatures of what I ordered on VistaPrint. George is going to be very happy when he sees this. As my chief logistics person he's been asking exactly what is going to be packed for the show. If this is not it, I'm getting quite close.If you are going to Puyallup, please to come to one of the 45 minute Paganoonoo "1 Needle Sessions"! I'll be doing a demo, and talking a bit about why upcycling is great for the environment and your budget. The cost is $6, and you can register with the Expo folks here. I'll be looking for you! Happy Upcycling, Michelle
